- Baker & Taylor
Glimpsing a trio of women dressed up in fabulous mermaid costumes while riding the subway home with his abuela, little Julián resolves to make a fancy mermaid costume and headdress for himself and wonders what his abuela will think of the mess he makes, and more importantly, how his costume will reflect how he sees himself. - Baker & Taylor
When Juliâan notices three women dressed like mermaids on the subway, he dreams of becoming a mermaid himself, but worries what his abuela might think. - Baker & Taylor
While riding the subway home from the pool with his abuela one day, Juliâan notices three women spectacularly dressed up. Their hair billows in brilliant hues, their dresses end in fishtails, and their joy fills the train car. When Juliâan gets home, daydreaming of the magic he's seen, all he can think about is dressing up just like the ladies in his own fabulous mermaid costume: a butter-yellow curtain for his tail, the fronds of a potted fern for his headdress. But what will Abuela think about the messhe makes -- and even more importantly, what will she think about how Juliâan sees himself? - Random House, Inc.
